Space Used for OSMC on SD Card for Windows - Pi 2 Installation

Help and Support Raspberry Pi

Hey,

I just got on to the OSMC Bandwagon and decided to Install on a SD card while I waited for my Pi - 2 to show up. Downloading the Windows Based Installer was easy and I can confirm that your Installer works on Windows 10 TP.

After selecting Pi 2 as my install flavour, it continued with a clean install and I was presented with a success notification.

Tinkering around the newly created Pi-2 capable SD Card, I found that OSMC had partitioned the Card into a 234 MB Partition and left the rest of the space unused.

I am just curious if this is by design and if yes, then why?

Cheers,
A-Man

It won’t be unused after first boot. Installer will partition entire SD card.
Right now you see only installation partition

Ah Ha,

Thanks. Guess I just have to wait for the Pi-2 to show up and hold on to my horses until then. Will report back with the update.

Cheers Mate
